Book Description
Mama helped with the typing, but these are my stories about my puppy years. You will read about animals I befriended, happy times on the trails, and times when I was in trouble or scared by lightning, rattlesnakes, bees, and rain beetles to name a few. I have left the fence line unguarded too long now so I have to take off. Mama can continue from here. When Maggie joined our family, we hoped she would fill the void left by the loss of our first dog, Toots. We wanted a dog to be an ambassador on the trail, to love snow and water play, and to get along with other animals and people. At first, Maggie and Toots seemed like polar opposites. Ultimately, love proved to be the defining similarity and Maggie was so much more than a replacement. It has been an honor to share Maggie’s first years, and now with the arrival of two grandchildren, there is so much joy seeing her welcome Eve and Eli into our pack and our lives.

Book Description
Praised as “Australia’s answer to Maeve Binchy, a modern-day Jane Austen” (The Sun Herald, Australia), Monica McInerney, internationally bestselling author of The Alphabet Sisters, returns with a poignant novel of love, loss, and the enduring strength of family ties. Nestled in a picturesque corner of southern Australia, the Valley View Motel has been run by the Quinlans for years—and nobody adores the place more than Lola, the family’s lovable and mischievous Irish-born matriarch. So when she insists that her relatives spend their Christmas elsewhere, the close-knit bunch can’t help but be a bit curious. Lola has always had a knack for clever schemes; after all, she once slyly reunited her three feuding granddaughters, whom she nicknamed the Alphabet Sisters. And with the holiday season fast approaching, Lola decides it’s time to stir up some extra excitement. Plotting in secret and online, Lola thinks it would be fun to invite a select group of strangers to stay at the motel for Christmas. Will these guests become friends, ignite sparks, fall in love? As she counts down the days until their arrival, Lola’s own family dramas threaten to upend her best-laid plans. Yet amid moments of humor, heartache, and unexpected twists of fate, Lola finds that she’s the one who’s in for the biggest surprise of all. “[Monica] McInerney’s assured writing sparkles. . . .

One week… …with the guy she’s desperate to resist! Returning home isn’t something buttoned-up businesswoman Harper Addison does often. She’s too focused on earning money to support her family.
